Chapter 399 Defeat

After careful observation for a while, Commander Milosh Chuatoko directly ordered the second battalion in the middle to start shrinking the front, and ordered the outer battalion, which had been mixed with the enemy, to withstand the enemy's attack with all its strength. attack.

  The purpose is very clear, to keep the surviving second battalion and let the first battalion be responsible for the cover.

   But the first battalion was at the end of its strength. After a long battle, the weapons and ammunition could not be supplied in large quantities, and they were always passively beaten in the battle with the rebels.

   Now being assigned to cover the Second Battalion, it is natural that they cannot exert much combat effectiveness.

  So, it soon fell to the brink of collapse, and this situation greatly exceeded the expectations of Captain Milosh Chuatoko.

  The second battalion commander stood at the head of Milosh Chuatoko and said anxiously to him:

   "Leader, please withdraw with us!"

Commander Milosh Chuatoko glared at the second battalion commander, feeling very dissatisfied. Now in this situation, he began to think about running for his life, but he also understood that it was useless to blame the other party, so he pondered for a while Afterwards:

   "You arrange a company of troops to support the retreat of the first battalion, and the rest attack towards the dock. You must ensure that the retreat route of the entire army is unblocked."

  The second battalion commander nodded quickly, and saluted Commander Milos Chuatoko:

   "Yes, Captain, then follow me and retreat first!"

  At this moment, Commander Milosh Chuatoko is in a very complicated mood. He is a dignified commander of the border defense army and has a bright future. This time, they came to destroy the rebels of Brother Eddie, also for the purpose of showing their talents, and wanted to give themselves a chance to go further.

   But in this situation now, it is no longer a question of whether you can go further. Whether you can save your own life depends on whether the retreat can be successful.

  Deep in his heart, he really wanted to evacuate directly, and now it has obviously turned into a big rout. If he also evacuates first, the decline of the entire army will never be reversed.

   This is something he can't accept anyway. If he fails to destroy the enemy with his own strength, the most he can do is that his evaluation ability is not good, but if it is because he withdraws first and the entire army is wiped out, he will be shot when he returns.

   Now he knows very well that his military career is basically over, but at least he won't be shot!

  So, he could only pretend to be calm and said to the second battalion commander:

   "You retreat first, I will stay here and lead the brothers to stop the enemy's pursuit. If nothing can be done, I will come and chase you."

  After the officers around heard what their commander said, many of them began to look ashamed.

   Several people even expressed their opinions on the spot:

   "Sir, we will accompany you and let these rebels see our strength."

   Seeing this scene, Commander Milosh Chuatoko felt relieved. It seems that the soldiers under his command are still a group of very honorable fighters.

  Even he felt a little ashamed at the thought of retreating directly.

  Regarding the stance of his officers, Commander Milosh Chuatoko shook his head slowly after thinking about it. He knew very well in his heart that the troops now had no hope of making a comeback.

  The third battalion has been wiped out by the rebels, and the first battalion has been maimed by the enemy. Now after the enemy's sudden attack, he doesn't know if anyone can escape in the end.

  The only second battalion that can be regarded as a complete organization is his last strength.

   Wanting to rely on the current Second Battalion to make a comeback against the wind, he dared not even think about it, and he knew very well that this was an impossible task.

  So directly opened the mouth and said:

   "We are now powerless to turn the tables. You are the backbone of our army. As long as you are still there, our army still has hope of rebuilding.

  So, you don’t have to stay here with me, and I won’t stay here to the death. I will naturally go back with everyone after the troops complete their evacuation. "

  Although Brazil does not belong to European countries, it is also an independent country from European colonies. Therefore, in terms of values, it is still close to Western countries.

  For the attitude of war, although surrender or defeat is very embarrassing, it is not unacceptable.

  So, Captain Milosh Chuatoko never thought of fighting to the end or dying for the country.

  For him, although losing the war is very embarrassing, it is not an unacceptable thing. The big deal is to go back and accept a military court trial.

   Hold yourself accountable for defeat, but at least you don’t have to risk your life.

  Everything he does now is to maintain his sense of honor as a team leader and fulfill his due responsibilities.

After hearing his words, the subordinate officers also understood his attitude, and they all breathed a sigh of relief. After all, for them, the defeat is not their responsibility, but if they leave their chief and flee for their lives, they will go to the military law office gone.

   "Head, the situation is critical now, we still need you to take charge of the overall situation, please be sure to stay in the safest place, since the evacuation plan has been determined, even if you stay here, nothing will change.

  I suggest that you lead us to the pier and direct the next evacuation operation! "

  The second battalion commander saw the attitude of the other officers, and he also understood that if he really left Commander Milosh Chuatoko and left first, he might be despised by the officers.

  So he quickly opened his mouth to remonstrate.

   In fact, there are very few officers like Milos Chuatoko in Europe. According to European values, officers are the most important property of an army.

  If it is, it is not surprising that Captain Milosh Chuatoko evacuated first. At worst, you will be punished after you go back, as long as you are willing to spend a little money and bribe your boss.

   It is not uncommon to come out to lead troops again. Now it is mainly the sense of honor in Captain Milosh Chuatoko's heart that prevents him from leaving the soldiers and running for his own life.

  The words of the second battalion commander shook Milosh Chuatoko, who was not particularly resolute. He was obviously unwilling to lose his life in this remote town for a group of rebels.

   Just when he wanted to weigh the pros and cons and was hesitating, the rebels didn't know whether they had discovered the location of their headquarters through intelligence, and three consecutive mortar shots directly hit their location.

  Although it didn't fall directly into the crowd, it also directly blasted down a wall of the two-story building.

  The flying stones and shrapnel killed two officers on the spot, and Commander Milosh Chuatoko was also hit on the head by a flying stone, and his head was bloody.

  Seeing this, the surrounding officers panicked and shouted:

   "Medical soldier, medical soldier, come quickly, the regiment leader is injured."

   They won't be able to do business if Captain Milosh Chuatoko dies here.

  The second battalion commander even ordered to the two officers without hesitation:

   "Hurry up, the leader is injured, the two of you are responsible for protecting the leader to evacuate."

   After speaking, he winked at the two officers. The two were also smart people. After looking at each other, they crossed Milosh Chuatoko's arms and started going downstairs without waiting for the medical soldiers to arrive.

  A small building whose wall was blown down was already crumbling. The officers were frightened by the explosion attack that was close at hand, and they all followed Milosh Chuatoko and left the temporary headquarters.

   Of course, the changes here cannot be hidden from the soldiers on the periphery. The headquarters was hit by mortar shells, which made everyone panic. The soldiers who were already in a state of collapse became even more panicked.

  This turned the orderly retreat planned by Commander Milosh Chuatoko into a major defeat.

  The rebels obviously also found this situation in their favor, so they started a more ferocious attack, which made the rout of the government army more rapid.

  Commander Milosh Chuatoko, who was injured on the head, couldn't care less about the situation on the battlefield at the moment.

  After being helped down the stairs by two officers, a medical soldier ran over quickly and was shocked to find that the regimental commander's face was covered in blood.

  The two officers yelled at the medical soldiers:

   "Quickly stop the bleeding for the leader, we will retreat first, and then check with the leader when we are on the ship."

  The medical soldier was stunned for a moment, and before he had time to think about it, he took out the medical kit and poured a pack of hemostatic powder on Milosh Chuatoko's head.

   Then he took out a piece of gauze and pressed it directly on his forehead.

  The two officers didn't wait for the medics to put on the bandages. One of them stretched out his hand and pressed it on the gauze, and then began to drag Milosh Chuatoko out.

  The medical soldiers took the bandages and followed behind a few people to catch up.

   Regarding this, Milosh Chuatoko himself did not make a sound, and he acquiesced in the behavior of the officers leading him to retreat directly.

  The commander of the second battalion commanded the soldiers of the second battalion to start attacking towards the pier. Now everyone knew that this was about to start fleeing for their lives, and everyone broke out with unprecedented fighting power.

   The rebels who had just gathered were unable to parry, and a gap was quickly broken by the government army.

  Briso Eddie, who is in charge of commanding the rebel army, also understands that if he wants to rely on his own strength to keep the entire border guards, it is obviously an impossible task.

   Therefore, after receiving the battle report from the front and knowing that the enemy had begun to break out towards the pier, they hesitated again and again, and decided to let go of the gap and let the government troops escape.

   Bartley Crow, who was on the side, heard this order, looked at Brisso Eddie in disbelief and said:

   "Boss, now that the enemy is surrounded by us, how can we let them go?"

  The orderly on the side heard Bartley Crowe's objection, and did not leave directly to deliver orders to the frontline troops.

  Briso Eddie saw this scene, a trace of dissatisfaction and vigilance flashed in his eyes, but his face was really calm, as if he didn't notice the behavior of the orderly.

   Instead, he said to Bartley Crowe with a smile on his face:

   "Batley, how many soldiers do we have now?"

   Bartley Crowe obviously didn't notice the change in Dao Briso Eddie's eyes, Hao said without hesitation:

   "Including the newly recruited people, there are a total of 1,200 people."

   "How many veterans are there?"

  Briso Eddie continued to ask unhurriedly.

   These data are of course very clear to Bartley Crow, almost blurting out the report:

   "Eight hundred and fifty veterans."

  Hearing this, Briso Eddie nodded with a smile on his face, and asked Bartley Crow with an eager face:

   "Then do you know how many soldiers the enemy still has?"

   This data is obviously beyond Bartley Crow's grasp, he said with some hesitation:

   "I don't know, but there should be five or six hundred people!"

  Briso Eddie continued to ask with a smile:

   "Then how many casualties are you prepared to pay to completely wipe out the enemy here?"

   Bartley Crowe quickly understood what Brisso Eddie meant, and he said to Brisso Eddie confidently:

   "Don't worry, the boss. With the fighting power of these government troops, we will have at most 300 casualties, and we will definitely be able to keep all the enemies behind."

  Looking at Bartley Crow with a confident face, Brisso Eddie, who was already highly vigilant, felt a little loose in his heart, and continued with a slightly restrained smile:

   "Batley, you have to understand that the government army has a large number of troops. The casualties of a regiment are not important to the government army. They can send more regiment-level troops at any time to encircle us.

  But we only have more than 800 veterans. Now that the government army has brought the battalion outside the town, it is obvious that the two companies responsible for attacking this battalion are already in danger.

  We have already lost more than 200 people here. If we fill in another 300 people here, our veterans will only have more than 300 people left.

  If there is another government army attacking, how can we resist it?

   Does it depend on those newly recruited recruits? "

   Bartley Crow heard the words, finally reacted, and after thinking about it, he nodded to Brisso Eddie and said:

   "I understand what you mean, but I am really unwilling to let these government troops leave!"

  Briso Eddie heard the words, stepped forward and patted the other party's shoulder and said:

   "Our strength is not enough now, as long as we can take advantage of the rainy season to train these newly recruited fighters. In addition, we will recruit some people from Bittenkot Town at that time.

  One rainy season is enough for our strength to improve quickly. Soon our army will have more than 1,800 armed forces.

  And, as long as we can drive this government army out of Manguari and Bitengkot, we will be equivalent to occupying a range of 500 kilometers nearby.

  Our strength can be quickly restored. It will not be so easy for the government to encircle and suppress us. "

  Hearing Brisso Eddie's analysis, Bartley Crowe finally let go of the urge to wipe out the government army in his heart, nodded to Brisso Eddie and said:

   "Boss, I understand what you mean, you are right, I will listen to you."

  The orderly on the side heard that Bartley Crowe had expressed his position, so he stopped staying and turned around to leave to deliver the order.

  Briso Eddie saw everything in his eyes, but he didn't say anything, as if he didn't notice at all, he laughed at Bartley Crow:

   "Haha. I can understand your feelings. To be honest, I really want to eat this enemy army directly, but now our strength is not enough, and we need to slowly accumulate strength.

  I believe that it will not be too far before we directly eat a regiment of the government army. "

   Bartley Crowe also looked at Brisso Eddie with admiration when he heard the words:

   "Boss, I didn't expect you to be a military genius. Not only did you fly us out of the siege of Rio de Janeiro, but you also led us to repel the government army's attack.

  I think the Brazilian government will regret what they did to the Eddie family. "
